prendre le virage à la corde
Explanation:
"La corde de virage est la ligne invisible qu’on trace dans la courbe. À titre d’exemple, on amorcera une courbe à droite en se plaçant dans la partie gauche de la voie; on se dirige ensuite vers l’intérieur de la voie. On adoucit ainsi l’arc de cercle du virage tout en améliorant son champ de vision."
